Hi All
Firstly  AllisonKennedy thank you for your solution!
And @ashmitp869 ,As AllisonKennedy said, we can use the paging report for the printing of pages, you can now need to premium permissions, even if it is pro permissions can be connected to the semantic model, and then paging report, exported as pdf, you can realize the effect of paging!
Below are the steps of the operation, I hope to help you, if you want to change how many rows are displayed on each page, you can change the value of value by yourself to ensure that the value you want is generated.

@ashmitp869  Power BI visuals are designed for computer use so that you can scroll through the records. You could implement DAX to 'paginate' the visual, and then pre-create X number of pages based on how many pages you think will be needed, but this will be very slow.

 

Paginated Reports is Power BI's cousin, and it is designed for printing to PDF with multiple pages, and will automatically scale to the correct number of pages. Paginated reports is a different application, so learning a new thing, but if you keep it simple it is doable. You'll want to check on licensing too - used to need Premium to use Paginated reports, not sure if that's still the case.
